General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.

You pain in the left lower side of the abdomen may not be related to the menstrual cycle as this is only 2 nd day of your periods but you have pain since 8 days.
The most probable cause of such a pain on the left lower side in a female patient can be :
Colitis.
Salpingitis.
Ovarian cyst

I would advise you the following:
Get a Physical examination of the abdomen done by a Surgeon.
Get an ultrasonography and S-ray of the abdomen in standing position.
If there is a change in bowel habits, a course of an antibiotic and metronidazole along with anti-spsmodic round the clock may cure your problem.

If not then further study of the abdomen by a CT scan and colonoscopy may be required.
